Cliff Hillis - Love Not War Companion

Cliff Hillis's latest EP "Love Not War" is on the top of my playlist at the moment. As always Cliff deliver's with terrific well constructed tunes that get wedged into your consciousness. The 7 songs that comprise "Love Not War" fly by and I was always wanting more. Just as I did for his last EP I've pulled together some additional demos that Cliff posted on his two Soundcloud accounts in a compilation that complements his official EP. Buy the EP and add these additional 7 tracks and you have something that more approximates a proper "album". Enjoy and don't forget to support one of the US's best Power Pop recording artist.Love Not War EP1 Love Not War2 The Buddha's Belly3 Don't Drown the Wind4 A Boy Downtown5 Suicide Doors6 Mayor of Midnight7 Too Many SongsLove Not War Companion8 Fresh As Tomorrow9 Truth Be Told10 Cindy is Serious11 Fourth Stone From the Sun12 David Crosby13 Grosser than Gross14 Seven Seas

Power Pop

What can I say? I love Power Pop. Classic Power Pop - the kind made great by Jellyfish, Wondermints the Candy Butchers, the Wannadies and XTC. There are lots of other kinds of great music out there. But I'm going to concentrate on classic Power Pop here.
